Again, just one clue ...  Wink

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

I'm wrong - I know I am - because if I were right I think the platform should be visible in that picture but - Yatton?

No, not Yatton ... there's no building like that at Yatton ... but, in one sense, you're perhaps closer than you might think to the correct answer.  Grin

Have you been to Yate Chris...??

Something strikes me as familiar when I took a HP Proliant ML115 G5p there as an emergency swap out for a client about a year ago! Grin
